Chapter 36 The Japanese have run out of patience to maintain their image of hypocrisy

I crept over, crouched down as if I was tying my shoelaces, and folded the paper a little and clipped it into the notebook I had used for the ambulance training. Instinctively, I carefully avoided the eyes of my family, and it wasn't until I got on the train that I carefully opened the paper and looked at it carefully. I couldn't help but regret a little, those cruel realities were beyond my ability to bear.

Compared with the tragic reality, I have to admit that the government's whitewashing of the peace is much more acceptable. At least after listening to the news on the radio, people will believe in their hearts that as long as all the countries of the world are on China's side, as long as everyone unites to fight together, the Japanese will definitely be driven out of China. But after reading the battle report, this conviction was shattered with a hammer, and it was shattered into slag, and it was impossible to piece together a complete conviction. At this point, I collapsed in my seat as if I had been struck by lightning, and I didn't even know where the train was coming.

A pair of hands picked up the manuscript paper that had fallen on the ground and put it in my hand: "Miss, are you okay?" ”

I shook my head in a trance, nodded again, and finally suddenly saw the familiar scene in front of me, hurriedly grabbed my schoolbag, and rushed out of the car without looking back. But just a second later, I regretted it. Because I saw the face flashing in the car window, such a tall figure and such a clear face could never be mistaken, coupled with that familiar voice, I can be 100% sure that it is the translation of the time that has been missing for a long time. I didn't have time to examine the fragments of my memory, so I pulled out my legs to chase the tram, but the driver seemed to have no distraction, and the car gradually drifted away, and finally disappeared from sight.

I cursed in my heart, this guy definitely recognized me. So as soon as she recognized me, she hid in the crowd and pretended not to know. He must have leaned in front of the car window just now to observe my reaction, judging from these clues, this guy definitely has a ghost in his heart!

I was a little annoyed and stopped in place for a long time, and my chagrin was like the water of the Yangtze River rushing in. If I had been able to look up just now, if I had recognized him then, I would never have been so upset now. If I had expected it correctly, the sudden appearance of Yizhi at such a critical juncture would mean that he, Gu Zuoyan and the forces behind them would have to make new moves, and now I would very much like to hope that they can do something to combat the arrogance of the Japanese.

I don't usually have a cold interest in politics, but that doesn't mean I don't understand anything in my heart. I have been suspicious of Gu Zuoyan for a long time, coupled with the previous encounters and the subsequent loss of contact, even a fool knows that he is definitely not an ordinary person. Maybe it's out of gratitude, maybe it's because I've made him a friend, and I haven't mentioned any of these things to anyone, even when I'm with Wei February, I tacitly don't mention them. But! This fact is objective, and I often wonder when I dream back in the middle of the night. It took a long time for me to save myself from my frustration, and I comforted myself nonchalantly, hum, what's the big deal, now we are also people who can contribute to the country!

A few days later, the turn of the war turned for his hesitant grandfather. As the old saying goes, "think about it when you are full of warmth", that is to say, when you are full of food and warmth, you will not worry about your life, and you will think about those who have not, and when you even have problems with survival, the things outside your body can naturally be thrown away.

Because I heard that the Japanese had hit the Huangpu River, the whole of Shanghai fell into panic overnight. My grandfather didn't think much about it and made a decision, "I can stay in the green mountains, and I don't have to worry about running out of firewood", so I still listened to my father's words and moved the family to the concession. In less than half a day, all the supplies needed for evacuation were sorted out. The grandfather had his own principle that "except for those necessary and ancestral treasures, the rest of the things are left in the mansion".

In the same way, he still retains a firm "revolutionary optimism", believing that this battle will not last long and will come back. So I deliberately spent a lot of money to hire a "red-headed Ah San" who "wants money and doesn't want to die" to stay in the mansion to protect those belongings that we can't take away. The so-called "red-headed Ah San" is actually the image name of the Shanghainese for the Indians, because they wear red turbans all the year round, so this title has not gone far and wide, but has replaced the original title of the Indians. "Red-headed Ah San" usually undertakes the following two duties, one is the thug of the patrol room; The second is the gatekeeper. Ordinary people have suffered a lot of dumb losses in their hands, but the government and the concession authorities have a lot of trust in them, so the reputation of "Red-headed Ah San" in Shanghai has not been very good.

However, compared with the ferocious Japanese, the image of "Red-headed Ah San" is much cuter. In figurative terms, one is the contradiction between friend and foe, and the other is the internal contradiction of the poor masses in the third world. My grandfather communicated with the newly invited "Red-headed Ah San" bull for a long time, and finally my English came in handy. After conveying some important explanations, my grandfather reluctantly left with everyone.

It is said that it is "fleeing", and it is necessary to travel lightly, but in fact, it is really not light. My grandfather rode in my aunt's car, the others rode in rickshaws, and several trucks hired from behind us carrying belongings packed in large wooden boxes, forming a large convoy and heading towards our new residence. Chinese have always regarded moving to a new home as a happy event, but now because they have to do it because of the continuous war, some are only apprehensive, and they are never half happy.

My mother and I were sitting in the same rickshaw, and when my mother saw that I was nervous, she stretched out her hand and held my hand firmly: "Don't worry, although the Japanese are powerful, we have millions of troops, and we will never let them succeed." ”

I looked ahead a little stunned: "But the Japanese went all the way south as if they were in a no-man's land, burning and looting everywhere they passed, and ten rooms and nine emptiness. At this rate, it is only a matter of time before Shanghai is conquered. If the whole of China is brought down by them, won't we all be fish on the board to be slaughtered? Isn't the lesson of history enough, why can't we take precautions early, and what else can we talk about outside and inside! ”

My mother smiled and took me in her arms: "What are you thinking about in your little brain!" There are so many defenders in Shanghai, how can they be so easy to defeat? Besides, the Japanese have always done an excellent job on the surface, even if they are ambitious and want to swallow the whole of China, they still want not to face the British and Americans head-on, and maintain their own image. ”
